DUST CONUNDRUMS

ONE OF THE FEW COMPLAINTS we have about Corsair’s 270R stems from the uppermost fan mounts— primarily that they lack any form of dust cover. Being an awkward size and not supporting 360mm radiators either, regardless of its dimensions, makes things even more frustrating when you’re on the hunt for a dust filter. Your best bet, if building in this particular chassis, would be to use two 120mm fans to blow air out of the top of the chassis. This should at least prevent too much dust entering your system while it’s running, although it will need some loving maintenance to keep it truly clean in the long term.
